This is the unofficial blog for the Lowestoft to Peterborough X1 bus service operated by First Group.
Originally reporting the introduction of the 'Gemini' double deckers and the phasing out of coaches, the blog is now incredibly in its sixth year and a £5 million fleet of 22 Enviro 400 luxury buses now work the service.

Sunday 1st March 2009 ~ All B9s - Well almost

37577 seems to be leaning at an alarming angle when photographed heading for Peterborough this afternoon.

It is reasonable to expect that with 17 B9s in service and only 9 turns on Sundays that they should all get deckers. Today this was almost true, but Bruce reported 20107 on the 12.17 from Walpole Highway to Peterborough ( this turn starts at Yarmouth) and he was more than a little surprised, particularly as he saw it yesterday on K18 when he was en route to Rugby, to find it was the first X1 he saw on his return.

Only one turn not accounted for today, otherwise apart from 107 all B9s.
